Application filed Feb uary 6, 1895. "Serial No. 537,523. (N0 specimens.)

To caZZ 1072 0122 it may concern:

Be it known that I, RICHARD CLARK, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of Camden, State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement inLining Metal for Bearings, 850., which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification.

My invention consists ot a novel metal for lining bearings, 850., and in carrying out the same I take of pig lead, five hundred pounds; antimony, sixty pounds; ,plumbago or black lead, one pound; potters clay, five pounds; the above proportions being employed for making a light lining, but for'a heavy metal, I take of pig lead, five hundred pounds; antimony, seventy-five pounds; black-lead, one and one-half pounds; potters clay, five pounds. These proportionsmay however be varied. as desired. The lead is melted, after which the antimony is added thereto, end when the same has fused, the black lead and clay are-added, all well stirred together, after which the compound is run into pigs, from which it may be cast or otherwise formed into lining-shapes as desired.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- 1 A composition of matter forming a lining metal for bearings, the. consisting of pig lead, antimony, black lead and potlers clay in the proportions stated.
